If you delete the update doesn’t the badge go away? I’m trying to get rid of mine and I think I need to wait for it to auto download. But it’s taking its time to auto download. Might be a couple weeks before it actually does.
Got a tip for us?

iOS 14 Adoption Surpasses 25% Across iPhone and iPad Five Days After Release

My iphone 4 is stuck at ios 7. Battery is still good so no reason to upgrade.
When will Apple kill off the Other category? I think it's time the AppStore for iOS 10, 11, 12 be shut down... OR Apple should offer a compelling recycling program option. As a developer it's annoying to support two older operating systems... But if you are developer supporting more than 3 older operating systems I feel sorry for you.
It does not. The update is not on my phone to begin with.
It was. I got the notification and deleted but the badge remains.
Many have auto-download enabled but not necessarily auto-update. As of iOS 13.6 the ability to disable either one or both is there too. At the moment most likely haven't even received a notification to update yet as it takes some time for that to propagate through over a period of weeks usually.
That all aside, the stat that is there mainly for developers isn't a meaningless one given that it provides information as to how many devices are on various versions of iOS (it's not there to say what people think of those versions, or how good or bad those versions are, or anything like that).
I'm craving 14.2 .. would not update to 14.0 again. five-to-ten second screen response figuring out some interface loop mistake? Widgets crashing when you try to put it on home screen? An 11 Pro ought to be able to handle that. Glad they're delaying the iPad Air .. I plan to get one but with just a simple caveat. I want it to work like its designers intended.
My mother NEVER updates anything by herself and she has iOS 14 already, it installed overnight Saturday and Sunday morning I had a call asking what had happened and why were things different 😂
It was my wife that came through to me asking what the update was all about, she would never start something herself either. I checked my phone and it was updated also.
I wonder if the difference is just everyone stuck at home now with more time to get around to things like updating their iPad OS.
I think we all will. It's not a high priority for Apple so don't expect a fix anytime soon.
iOS 14 is still a bit buggy might as well wait an update or two
As for Widgets there aren’t that many YET
and some don’t work as intended
BOTTOM LINE: No rush to download

I’ve found that if you set your devices not to look for updates, then you won’t get the notification badge. However, if you look for an update, then it will forever remind you
there’s a whole page on how “hey siri” works on the apple dev site.
Considering the “nagging” has been there since iOS 1, the stat is meaningfull when compariong iOS versions.
I updated my wife's iphone to ios 14...she said she didn't see what was different. I did say the phone notification doesn't take over the screen. My wife runs her business from her phone. Anecdotally, to each their own.
